September In the Rain

Words & Music by Al Dubin & Harry Warren
Recorded by Dinah Washington, 1961 (#21)


G+   C         C/B        Am7     Am7/G      Dm        Dm+7
The leaves of brown came tumbling down - remember

 FM7    F#m     G7        C    Am7   Dm7   G7
That September    in the rain.


G+   C       C/B      Am7    Am7/G  Dm     Dm+
The sun went out just like a dying ember

 FM7    F#m     G7        C    Fdim   C
That September    in the rain.


Bridge:

    Gm7   C7     Gm7    C7        F6        FM7   
To ev'ry word of love I heard you whisper,

     Am7       D7       Gdim    D7       G
The raindrops seemed to play a sweet refrain.


G+       C      C/B      Am7      Am7/G    Dm      Dm+
Though spring is here, to me it's still September,

 FM7    F#m     G7        C    Fdim   C
That September    in the rain.
